I thought the guy busted his tail every time he was on the ice. I just wished that he was afforded the opportunity/ice time that a guy like Boyle consistantly gets (even Pyatt for that matter, although it's a different position). He certainly couldn't be worse then some of the guys who are getting consistant ice time.

Is it possible that Halpern himself asked for the release and the Rangers did him a favor by releasing a vet player to hopefully latch on somewhere else?
